We all have these moments of frustration of ‘what is wrong with me’, ‘why can’t I stop myself’, ‘Why can’t I get anything done’, ‘I don’t want to feel this way’

So frustrating when you want to see a way through but you just keep facing the blocks time and time again, right??

We all have these moments, but maybe recent life events have been meaning they have been showing up more often.

I found myself in this space this week with my kids, as they are frustrating the hell out of me with the constant bickering I was starting to feel that little bit of mum burnout.

Like any type of frustration, it’s the space where you tell yourself you just can’t deal with this anymore, you don’t want to, you have had enough.

That used to be about the point where I would sit down and have a little cry to myself.

Now don’t get me wrong, there is absolutely nothing wrong with crying it out and allowing yourself to feel your emotions. I am absolutely ALL for that, I believe having a good cry can be incredibly healing.

BUT …….

I just know with the shifts in my own mindset and using these practices consistently, I now find that I don’t get to this point anywhere near as often now.
